Are you ready to experience more love in your life? Are you ready to live life more fully and experience a greater sense of joy and wellness?
You answered yes?...Wonderful! I can help you!
I am so glad you are here.. My name is Diane Gutierrez. I am a licensed marriage family therapist. I can help you discover what holds you back in life, and help you make lasting changes in how you experience your life.
Whether you would like more abundance, a better relationship with your child or spouse, or support with a difficult life event…together you and I can work together to help you experience more love and wellness in your life. We can unpack in therapy what gets in your way and brainstorm what steps to take that could be helpful for you. I will provide you a safe space to explore out loud those thoughts that get in the way of your experiencing the joy you deserve.
What you tell yourself shapes how you experience your daily life and the people in it. What you tell yourself makes you feel a certain way, and that in turn makes you behave a certain way. When you gently hold a light to what you tell yourself about your life you can begin to see more clearly those thoughts that are untrue and do not serve you. Together we can write a new truer story about your life and how you experience it.
Through our collaborative relationship we will explore with curiosity and non-judgement. I can help you create a more true and authentic narrative that takes you in the direction of more love and wellness. Are you ready to explore and let go of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are getting in the way of you living the life you want? Let’s begin...call me or email me today! I look forward to speaking with you soon!

My Mission
I am passionate about helping people bring about change in the way they experience their lives. I have the experience to help you get clear about what is important for you and get clear about what holds you back in your life. I know seeking help can be hard. You've likely been debating seeking support for months, if not years, and I am so glad you have taken the courageous step of being here!
My Process
Together we can explore common thoughts and patterns in your life that have not been helpful, and in our work together we can uncover new ways of looking at your life and yourself. We can explore helpful strategies and tools particular to you that will help you face and overcome your challenges. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, life transition, or are experiencing relationship struggles with a partner, family, or friends...know that YOU don't have to be alone in your journey.
Let's work together
I understand no two individuals are the same, and we will tailor our sessions together to address challenges unique to you. We will work together to understand the root cause of your struggles and address them with long-lasting strategies, helping you get closer to the life you've always wanted.
Anxiety
When it comes to anxiety, what you say to yourself matters. What you say to yourself affects how you feel and how you feel impacts how you behave. The good news is you can change the thoughts you tell yourself that don't work for you. Let's unpack together those thoughts that hold you back in your life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. CBT is very effective in managing anxiety and anxiety symptoms.
Individual Therapy
If you have been struggling with a problem in your life that feels unsurmountable, or you cannot see a way out of your current challenges then therapy could be very helpful. The power of being heard and seen and the power of exploring those thoughts and patterns that hold you back with more helpful thoughts and behaviors alongside a professional therapist cannot be put into words.
Parents and Children
Nothing really prepares you to become a parent. Some of us were lucky enough to have parents that set a good example. But others grew up in homes where the dynamic between child and parent was anything but functional or consistently loving. No matter how you grew up, you can empower yourself to be the best parent you can be.
Children and Adolescents
As they grow, children and adolescents develop social skills and emotional intelligence. This awareness helps them to develop into healthy, happy, and successful individuals. But some children have trouble processing their emotions and this often leads to behavior that negatively impacts their school life, home life, and overall well-being. We can work together to support your child and have your child thrive.
Couples
All things can be improved, changed, and bettered with just a little support, no matter how big or small. With couples therapy, you’ll learn how to communicate your feelings and needs, and get what you want out of your relationship within a safe, supportive environment that therapy provides.
